Villa Le Farnete . The construction of the villa dates back to the 14-th century by the Florentine family of the Mazzinghi. Subsequently, the villa was purchased by the Marquises de Gori in the 18-th century, renewing it inside, designing an Italian garden and modifying its front facade. In 1875 the villa became the property of the Fiorentine Lepri family and on that occasion other expansion and modification works were carried out. In 1995 the estate was divided by the Lepri family while keeping the property of the villa.
